Reality

ViewSonic VP2770-LED

This large ViewSonic VP2770-LED 27 inch has a very classic look. Its housing is made of matte black plastic of good quality. Finishing and assembly are also very good. The coating of the LCD panel is matte, so it is very sensitive to glare. The bottom of the screen is also very advanced; it allows a height adjustment and switch to portrait mode. Its seat is wide, however, so it takes a lot of space on a desk, it’s a shame.

Flawless image

ViewSonic VP2770-LED

The new PLS panel monitor ViewSonic VP2770-LED is a success in every respect. Its only weakness is its contrast ratio, typical of this display technology: the PLS is actually a version of the Samsung IPS, which displays low contrast ratio. This rate is more handicapped by the screen, not really homogeneous. Default (maximum brightness of 252 cd / m²) measured a contrast ratio of 792:1. Reducing the brightness to 41% (159 cd / m²), blurred the problems of homogeneity and increased the contrast ratio using the screen 911:1, which is ultimately a good result for the display type, rendering colors are accurate without any adjustment. Very true, even! We rarely saw shades of gray as well made and color mastered at this point (DeltaE 1.1 only). A near-perfect display quality and has more of a low remanence, which will suit the vast majority of players. With the option to overdrive mode via set (avoid the maximum setting which shows a negative remanence called “reverse ghosting”, the persistent contrails behind moving objects are very discreet. Side viewing angles, we find ourselves in the average IPS panels (91 ° horizontally and 70 ° vertically, according to measurements).

Full equipment

The ViewSonic VP2770-LED displays equipment just for a little price. It offers two USB ports version 3.0 and a full range of video inputs (DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort, VGA), but regrets that does not include speakers. Ergonomics, ViewSonic could have done better. The touch controls configuration menu screen it’s barely visible in a dark environment, which does not facilitate navigation in many adjustment options.

The verdict

Despite minor flaws of ergonomics, the monitor is a real success. The sound quality is excellent image rendering, response time is good and its definition provides a fine display very significant. Hats off! To the ViewSonic VP2770-LED 27inches monitor.
